Abstract
Background: Although vitamin D has several noncalcemic functions particularly on nervous system, its neuroregenerative roles on ischemic peripheral nerve injury has not been reported. In this study, it was aimed to investigate the effect of vitamin D-3 after epineurial devascularization of the sciatic nerve.
